FIFA World Cup Qualifiers 2022
The FIFA World Cup 2022 qualifiers are the competitions that will decide the teams that will participate in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, which is scheduled to be held in Qatar. The tournament will feature 32 teams.
The qualification process for the World Cup begins several years before the tournament and involves teams from all over the world. The process is organized by FIFA and is divided into several rounds, with teams advancing through the rounds based on their performance.
For the 2022 World Cup, the qualification process began in 2019 and will continue until 2022. The teams are divided into different confederations, such as UEFA (Europe), AFC (Asia), CAF (Africa), CONCACAF (North and Central America and Caribbean), OFC (Oceania) and CONMEBOL (South America) and will play in their respective regions.
The teams that finish in the top spots in their confederation will qualify for the World Cup, along with the host country, Qatar, who automatically qualified.
The exact schedule for the World Cup qualifiers depends on the confederation, but the teams play against each other in a round-robin format or home-and-away matches. The top teams from each group advance to the next round, and the process continues until the final teams are determined.
